the harmony remote worked on my LV9500 with the service menu. I bought the Harmony 650 instead of the LG service remote because it can be used as a all around remote, not just on the LV9500.
The people on this forum did a great job on explaining how to use the Harmony 650 remote to gain access to the service menu.

I'd be a bit cautious on proceeding down that path, as our units are supposedly 400Hz, whereas the US ones are 480Hz (I think)? If there is some actual hardware differences, then there could be an issue. I do remember reading either in this LG thread, or another model one, where a user took his US state to the middle east, was prompted to download a new firmware version, and it bricked his TV.

I would personally just calibrate the hell out of it, and enjoy the solid PQ.

Yep, mine appear to lessen after 10'min or so - which makes me think a thermal issue. Called lg support, they said to do a factory reset, which seemed to help, but only I think because my settings were erased and it's back to more of a torch mode and I havnt had time to do a proper calibration again. I've got until November until the warranty runs out, so I'll be chasing it up again late September when I'm back from holidays.

If you game at all, don't download update 04.01.30. The previous update had an average input lag of 43 ms. This new update increased it to an average of 73 ms.

Is there a way to revert to the previous firmware version?

x2. i'm curious if any of the more recent firmware updates have corrected this. Heck, I'm not even sure what input lag is on this set. I know that I just moved my ps3 to this TV from my Panny plasma and the lag is significantly worse. Anybody?

LG service came out today and looked at my panel and the dark lines. Watching ice hockey really showed the lines.
Just got a call from LG service and they said a new panel could not be ordered for the LV9500. He informed me the warranty company would be calling me.
My wife is upset, she liked the picture on the LV9500.
I bought a LG extended warranty for the LV9500 and I'm glad I did.
The LG service repairman said the warranty company would offer me a replacement or a buyout.
Anyone know if it really is LG offering a different TV? The truck was a official LG repair truck, if their is such a thing .
Any idea's on a LG TV to replace my LV9500? Does LG make nano TV'S?
